Tips
How to cut the Singapore budget
Four levers cover most of the savings in Singapore. First: pick the right window - January has the cheapest flights from Paris (€220 median, 0 % below peak). Second: pair two cities rather than one, with a cheaper stop (like Singapore) before or after the main city. Third: book the hotel 6 to 8 weeks ahead via aggregators that show market median rates. Fourth: prefer public transit or intercity rail over domestic flights for short distances.
